"cl /?" produces a different output if run on a real or a virtual drive
(this can be set with a simple subst command), causing an error in the
MSVC scripts if building on a virtual drive because the platform to use
cannot be detected.

"cl /help", on the contrary, produces a consistent output if used on a
real or virtual drive.  Changing to "/help" allows the compilation to
work with a virtual drive as long as the top of the code repository is
part of the drive, without impacting the build on real drives.

Extends the FDW API to allow batching inserts into foreign tables. That
is usually much more efficient than inserting individual rows, due to
high latency for each round-trip to the foreign server.

It was possible to implement something similar in the regular FDW API,
but it was inconvenient and there were issues with reporting the number
of actually inserted rows etc. This extends the FDW API with two new
functions:

* GetForeignModifyBatchSize - allows the FDW picking optimal batch size

* ExecForeignBatchInsert - inserts a batch of rows at once

Currently, only INSERT queries support batching. Support for DELETE and
UPDATE may be added in the future.

This also implements batching for postgres_fdw. The batch size may be
specified using "batch_size" option both at the server and table level.

The initial patch version was written by me, but it was rewritten and

It emerges that in some phases of the moon (perhaps to do with
directory entry order?), xcrun will report that the SDK path is
  /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk
which is normally a symlink to a version-numbered sibling directory.
Our heuristic to skip non-version-numbered pathnames was rejecting
that, which is the wrong thing to do.  We'd still like to end up
with a version-numbered PG_SYSROOT value, but we can have that by
dereferencing the symlink.

By default VACUUM will skip pages that it can't immediately get
exclusive access to, which means that even activities as harmless
and unpredictable as checkpoint buffer writes might prevent a page
from being processed.  Ordinarily this is no big deal, but we have
a small number of test cases that examine the results of VACUUM's
processing and therefore will fail if the page of interest is skipped.
This seems to be the explanation for some rare buildfarm failures.
To fix, add the DISABLE_PAGE_SKIPPING option to the VACUUM commands
in tests where this could be an issue.

Somebody extended search_plan_tree() to treat MergeAppend exactly
like Append, which is 100% wrong, because unlike Append we can't
assume that only one input node is actively returning tuples.
Hence a cursor using a MergeAppend across a UNION ALL or inheritance
tree could falsely match a WHERE CURRENT OF query at a row that
isn't actually the cursor's current output row, but coincidentally
has the same TID (in a different table) as the current output row.

Delete the faulty code; this means that such a case will now return
an error like 'cursor "foo" is not a simply updatable scan of table
"bar"', instead of silently misbehaving.  Users should not find that
surprising though, as the same cursor query could have failed that way
already depending on the chosen plan.  (It would fail like that if the
sort were done with an explicit Sort node instead of MergeAppend.)

what this code is doing, in hopes of forestalling future mistakes.

Block numbers are 32-bit unsigned integers.  Therefore, the smallest
SQL integer type that they can fit in is bigint.  However, in the
pageinspect module, most input and output parameters dealing with
block numbers were declared as int.  The behavior with block numbers
larger than a signed 32-bit integer was therefore dubious.  Change
these arguments to type bigint and add some more explicit error
checking on the block range.

(Other contrib modules appear to do this correctly already.)

Since we are changing argument types of existing functions, in order
to not misbehave if the binary is updated before the extension is
updated, we need to create new C symbols for the entry points, similar
to how it's done in other extensions as well.

execCurrent.c's search_plan_tree() assumed that ForeignScanStates
and CustomScanStates necessarily have a valid ss_currentRelation.
This is demonstrably untrue for postgres_fdw's remote join and
remote aggregation plans, and non-leaf custom scans might not have
an identifiable scan relation either.  Avoid crashing by ignoring
such nodes when the field is null.

This solution will lead to errors like 'cursor "foo" is not a
simply updatable scan of table "bar"' in cases where maybe we
could have allowed WHERE CURRENT OF to work.  That's not an issue
for postgres_fdw's usages, since joins or aggregations would render
WHERE CURRENT OF invalid anyway.  But an otherwise-transparent
upper level custom scan node might find this annoying.  When and if
someone cares to expend work on such a scenario, we could invent a
custom-scan-provider callback to determine what's safe.

Previously, the per-barrier-type functions tasked with absorbing
them were expected to always succeed and never throw an error.
However, that's a bit inconvenient. Further study has revealed that
there are realistic cases where it might not be possible to absorb
a ProcSignalBarrier without terminating the transaction, or even
the whole backend. Similarly, for some barrier types, there might
be other reasons where it's not reasonably possible to absorb the
barrier at certain points in the code, so provide a way for a
per-barrier-type function to reject absorbing the barrier.

Unfortunately, there's still no committed code making use of this
infrastructure; hopefully, we'll get there. :-(

Per Coverity. BuildIndexValueDescription() cannot actually return NULL in
this instance, because it only returns NULL if the user doesn't have the
required privileges, and this function can only be used by superuser. But
better safe than sorry.

When certain parameters are changed on a physical replication primary,
this is communicated to standbys using the XLOG_PARAMETER_CHANGE WAL
record.  The standby then checks whether its own settings are at least
as big as the ones on the primary.  If not, the standby shuts down
with a fatal error.

This patch changes this behavior for hot standbys to pause recovery at
that point instead.  That allows read traffic on the standby to
continue while database administrators figure out next steps.  When
recovery is unpaused, the server shuts down (as before).  The idea is
to fix the parameters while recovery is paused and then restart when
there is a maintenance window.

In cases where Xcode is newer than the underlying macOS version,
asking xcodebuild for the SDK path will produce a pointer to the
SDK shipped with Xcode, which may end up building code that does
not work on the underlying macOS version.  It appears that in
such cases, xcodebuild's answer also fails to match the default
behavior of Apple's compiler: assuming one has installed Xcode's
"command line tools", there will be an SDK for the OS's own version
in /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools, and the compiler will
default to using that.  This is all pretty poorly documented,
but experimentation suggests that "xcrun --show-sdk-path" gives
the sysroot path that the compiler is actually using, at least
in some cases.  Hence, try that first, but revert to xcodebuild
if xcrun fails (in very old Xcode, it is missing or lacks the
--show-sdk-path switch).

Also, "xcrun --show-sdk-path" may give a path that is valid but lacks
any OS version identifier.  We don't really want that, since most
of the motivation for wiring -isysroot into the build flags at all
is to ensure that all parts of a PG installation are built against
the same SDK, even when considering extensions built later and/or on
a different machine.  Insist on finding "N.N" in the directory name
before accepting the result.  (Adding "--sdk macosx" to the xcrun
call seems to produce the same answer as xcodebuild, but usually
more quickly because it's cached, so we also try that as a fallback.)

The core reason why we don't want to use Xcode's default SDK in cases
like this is that Apple's technology for introducing new syscalls
does not play nice with Autoconf: for example, configure will think
that preadv/pwritev exist when using a Big Sur SDK, even when building
on an older macOS version where they don't exist.  It'd be nice to
have a better solution to that problem, but this patch doesn't attempt
to fix that.
